This is another scene looking the other way to the last Shoreham painting. I went there with our club a couple of weeks ago. It is great to see at least eight of our members spread out all over the place painting or sketching.

Wednesday 4 September 2013
this painting was done mainly from a sketch that I did on site with our club mambers. it`s one of two pond`s that is in chislehurst.
I started painting around 1990 and loved it straight away.
I started with watercolour,and then after about 15 years I moved to Oils and acrylics. I still paint the odd watercolour to keep my hand in so to speak. I love impressionism. The only time I use detail is when I paint portraits. Otherwise it is my interpretation of the subject.
I am retired but still find it hard to find time to paint. I reckon I can manage to do a painting about three times a week.
Originally I was a Motor Mechanic. Then, for the eighteen years leading up to my retirement, I worked
for Barclays bank.
